Delete a program and all its child contents in Marketo.
AI agents call delete_program to permanently remove resources in Marketo MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes a program and all nested assets (campaigns, leads, activities, etc.) from Marketo without the ability to undo the operation. Deletion is irreversible and has broad blast radius (child contents), making it Destructive rather than Write. Severity is high because accidental execution could destroy significant marketing infrastructure and historical data, though not direct financial impact.
From the tool's definition Tool name: delete_program. Description: 'Delete a program and all its child contents in Marketo.' The verb 'delete' combined with 'all its child contents' explicitly indicates irreversible destruction of data.

delete_program is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_program rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_program. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
